A WEAK BACK KEPT STRONG

HIxBURG, APPoMArTox Co., VA, March 7, 1886.
ALLcocK's PLAsTERs have enabled me to
work and labor for the last two years. l have
been troubled with pain across my kidneys and
aweakness of the spine which, at times, rendered
me almost helpless. The first relief obtained
was by wearing two ALLcocK's PLAsTERs, and
use about two every month, and have no pain
or diligently. | consider them the Test plaster in
use. l, for one, cannot do without them.
